Box Anchor by Slide Anchor
« on: March 17, 2011, 01:13:29 PM »
Any of you guys use a Box anchor?

I used them on my lake boats and in my opinion they are the best anchor suited for this aplication.

Question is, how do they work in the big pond?

Any thoughts?

Here is a link.

I've been diving on more than one occasion where the anchor was laying on the sand bottom never digging in at all and the 20ft of chain was holding the boat in place.
So ditto on what Pete says.
